The Paper Chase - Season 1 Episode 20 The Tables Down at Ernie's
This episode further develops Kingsfield's character and fleshes-out his past. It begins with the news that Ernie's bar, a favorite campus hangout for generations, will be closed along with the other small businesses on the block. All the buildings will then be razed for parking for a new gym the college is building. Kingsfield has been retained by the school to represent the school's interest in the project. Meanwhile, Hart has taken on the cause to save Ernie's (where he works) and he confronts Kingsfield in his office. After some difficulty finding a lawyer who will take the case, Hart appeals to Kingsfield's nostalgic side by telling him he knows that he frequented that establishment back in his law school days in the 1930's because there is a table with his initials carved in it. This sparks some distant memory in Kingsfield's mind and he pays a visit to Ernie's. It so happens that the original Ernie, Sr. is there at the same time and they recognize each other and reminisce
